Last week we talked about the possibility of High Moon Studios and Marvel teaming up for a new game to be revealed at this year's San Diego Comic-Con. Now, a recent teaser site has shed some light on which Marvel character could be the star of that mystery title – his name is Hit Monkey!

Though not much is known about the game just yet, other than a 2013 release date, the Marvel comic book of the same name follows a Japanese Macaque who learns the tricks of the hitman trade by watching a human hitman at work. The character has also appeared in Deadpool comics, which definitely opens the door for some interesting gameplay.

The Marvel video games panel at SDCC 2012, where we're assuming Hit Monkey will be officially revealed, will be held on Saturday, July 14th. As usual, you can bet we'll be here to deliver all the info when it lands. Until then, what would you like to see from a Hit Monkey game? Will Deadpool make an appearance?
